Gentoo Council member Michał Górny posted
an RFC to the gentoo-dev mailing
list in late February about banning “‘AI’-backed (LLM/GPT/whatever)
contributions
” to the Gentoo Linux project. Górny wrote that the spread of the
AI bubble” indicated a need for Gentoo to formally take a stand on AI
tools. After a lengthy discussion, the Gentoo Council voted
unanimously this week to adopt his proposal and ban contributions generated with AI/ML tools.
